Cocktails and Glamping

Win an amazing Cocktails and Glamping experience worth over £500 with The Cleddau Gin Company and Lawrenny Glamping, Pembrokeshire.

Modern life with its stresses and demands, can take its toll. How often have you reached the end of a week craving nothing more than peace? Time out? Space to breathe – with a pinch of luxury sprinkled on top? The opportunity to relax, have some fun; to have your interest piqued; to experience something a little out of ordinary?

Imagine then, waking to peace and quiet overlooking a stunning view – the view that inspired the creation of the National Parks 70 years ago. Sun on your face, perhaps a gentle breeze to caress. Slowing down the pace to meander to the local quayside for lunch, may be a walk or taking to the water in the afternoon before returning back to base, sipping a delicious cocktail, mixed for you by your personal mixologist as the day comes to a close…

Inspiration on the banks of the Cleddau

The Cleddau estuary is one of Wales’ and indeed, the UK’s hidden gems. Sleepy tributaries of the East and West Cleddau rivers wind through stunning Pembrokeshire countryside to join in the Daugleddau estuary before reaching the sea. It’s here, where the rivers meet, that Lawrenny Castle once stood. It’s here where the Hobhouse Committee came up with the idea of protecting some of the UK’s most beautiful and wild spaces for everyone; it’s here, in 2019, 70 years later, where we at In the Welsh Wind were inspired with Big Retreat Wales to create The Cleddau Pineapple Dry Gin – beautiful small-batch copper pot distilled pineapple gin, hand finished & labelled with love in far West Wales  – and The Cleddau Gin Company.

Big Retreat Wales isn’t the only opportunity to enjoy a weekend in these glorious and inspirational surroundings. The Old Castle Terrace is also the location of a unique and exclusive glamping experience – Lawrenny Glamping. In a world where we crave experience over acquisition, to make sure that every moment counts, The Cleddau Gin Company and Lawrenny Glamping have teamed up to offer a unique weekend for 4 people worth £500 combining 3 night bell tent stay and exclusive al fresco cocktail experience hosted by In the Welsh Wind’s in house drinks designer and mixologist – and featuring The Cleddau Dry Gin. The lucky winner will also receive 2 bottles of The Cleddau Pineapple Dry Gin to take away with you – recreate those fabulous cocktails yourself or simply enjoy over ice with your favourite premium tonic and a slice of pink grapefruit…

Win an amazing cocktails and glamping experience worth £500!
